If anyone can help me I would be happy.

It could be that the ALC665 uses the Realtek HD driver and not the AC'97, which you can find links to the latest version here,

Latest Realtek HD Audio Driver Version

if you haven't tried it yet.

Hi urisa and welcome to Windows 7 Forums

The reason why the Realtek driver isn't working is because your board doesn't have Realtek audio. The device info you provided, PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_4370&SUBSYS_3009103C&REV_02, points to ATI when checked here: PCI Vendor and Device Lists

I already tried to install "Realtek HD driver" But when I try to install it gives me an error message "Device can not be found".


I'm sure that is my device because it's what was written in the specifications of the computer, and as you saw it also appears in everest.
And here's a motherboard chip image:

That is definitely a Realtek chip, and it is AC'97.

The latest driver (and it is quite old) can be found here: Realtek

Once downloaded (and I note that you already have downloaded it, but do so again in case the copy you have is corrupted), take a look at this to see if you can install the driver that way instead: Device Manager - Install Driver - Vista Forums

I already downloaded and installed this version and still have problems with the sound,
At least now I can record audio, microphone works,
I can see the bar jumps in the sound properties (recording) while I'm talking.
But still can not hear sound from the speakers or headphones when playing music.

Thanks for helping.

Check the front panel connections on the motherboard header. In contrast to HD headers, where it doesn't matter if a panel is connected or not, AC'97 headers require a front panel to be connected (or jumpers inserted) so that audio reaches the rear panel.

I added jumpers to the front panel connections on the motherboard header and nothing happen.
i uninstall the drivers and reinstall and still don't have a sound from the speakers or headphones.

Do you have a live version of Linux, such as Ubuntu, that you can fire up and see if you have sound there? Don't worry, this won't affect your Windows installation. This way, we can rule out possible hardware issues.

yes, i have a live ubuntu cd, I am already run the live cd and try to play sound and I do not hear anything,
in the sound properties (ubuntu) there are all various possibilities like:
Analog Sound
Analog Sound 5.1
Analog Sound 5.1 + Digital Sound
Digital Sound
Digital Sound 5.1
etc.

I tried several options and still not hear anything.


Question:
it is possible to ask people to exporting the Registry entries to a file who had managed to solve such problems?
Because I saw that a lot of people who have the same problems like mine and they were able to to solve it.
They simply have a different sound chip (realtek alc655, adi1888, etc.) but the same base (AC'97 Audio)?
